Betinis / Somerville College Choir Oxford Dawn Of Grace - Music For Christmas CD

Oxford's Somerville College Choir under it's director Will Dawes presents this compelling new program of seasonal choral works solely by female composers from across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, and including no fewer than eleven world premieres. This wide-ranging selection of repertoire reflects Somerville's unique role as the only non-denominational college chapel at Oxford, as well as remaining true it's founding principle of enabling women. Together these works tell a different story of the nativity but also of the times we live in, when diversity and equality capture the spirit not only of Christ, but Christmas itself.
